I have no dog in this fight but how do we know which teams are spending the most?
How do we know if UConn, Alabama, Purdue and NC State are at the top (or not)?

I'd take Olivari.
Similar offensive stats so far . . . both have Big East talent/skill . . . but Olivari has a Big East body and Boum did not. (6'3" 200 lbs v 6'3" 175 lbs) -

Yes but he was 16% from 3 not counting banked in passes. Lol. 2 for 6 overall, he knew he shouldn't shoot them (kudos to him) and so did our opponents.
Great player, I'll miss watching him play. -

Yep, listening to the player intros they were 6'2", 6'3", 6'6", 6'7" and 7'1". So they definitely didn't lack starting height and none of them were string beans either.

Yes. Did you see him play the top of the 1-3-1 against ETSU when JP was out?
But his athleticism is different, more like Posey. Also kind of reminds me of Darnell Williams and Lloyd Price.
